he Nassau County Museum of Art (NCMA) makes its home on the grounds of the former Clayton Estate. Its gallery lies within the palatial Gold Coast mansion at the heart of the property. On its walls sit pieces from titans of human creativity: Breugels and Warhols, Rockwells and Chagalls. This most recent exhibition, “The Seasons,� features works that bring patrons on the transformative journey from Winter to Spring to Summer to Fall as they traverse the rooms of the mansion.
